I'm working on a friends computer: XP Home (SP2) Internet Explorer 6.
Mouse moves or clicks (even on an empty desktop) cause a launch of
iexplore.exe - sometimes triggering a chain reaction of multiple explorer
windows being opened.
Clicking the "X" to close a browser window, only opens another. Alt-F4 is
my only to close the growing number of browsers - and it is tricky. Once a
browser is open, I can't manage to type in a URL as it continually tries to
refresh itself. I did manage to set the homepage to "blank", but the
refreshing occurs every second or so and I can't keep up.
Adaware, Spybot and MS Spyware all have been run - finding some items,
removing them, then showing the system to be clean. ... though the problem
persists.
Any thoughts.
